In memory of Sile Kenny and Sarah Hyland

lyrics

A Death And A Vision

"Nora
I'm on the way out"
She said, over the phone
from the bay window
overlooking the graveyard

And then?

well then she was gone
seventy eight
with a grandmother's grace
at eight in the morning

And in the soapy softness
of her aged and ancient hands
I felt a warmth
unmistakably hers

and in it every mother's kiss
every soft caress
Sitting by the cistern
smoking cigarettes
